Always 'dump the clutch'.

Feed the throttle as you take off. I start from 3500rpm and have the throttle squeezed to 3/4 by the time the clutch has engaged and within the moment of moving off the line I have full throttle (bout 1/2 second).

I did bunch of 13.5's to go with my 13.4 last time and all around 2.1 60ft.

ask macka about driving technique his 15+ second pass in pauls car sounded like he was riding the clutch all the way up the 1/4

[macka]

lol u can drive it next time hero.

It was wheelspinning not slipping cause some the sphincter of the universe told me to dump it at 4500

[skyzerr33]

didn't sound like wheel spin

sounded alot like slipping clutch for the fisrt half of the first pass

[rob77]

isnt this a bit off topic and post whoring?

[skyzerr33]

no its disscussing his driving on the night and how we persieved it

[PSIKO]

if he was slipping the clutch through a couple of gears, everyone at the motorplex would've smelt it

[N I B]

Pauls clutch would not slip anyway.

hey works mayhem forwarded me that pic of us comin out of burn out pad.look unreal. works how bout a new number plate

[Guest Works Auto]

Sean , "gotboost" your external wastegate sounded awesome.

I think im gonna have to weld the internal one shut and invest in one.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

I loved the sounds of GTAAH's external gates opening, when they did the car was awesome, pity it took so long for the power to come on.

See'ya:burnout:

Hmmm

Drag Wars was my first ever effort down the quarter so I suppose it wasnt too bad... My best time of the night which I got a couple of times was 14.1 at about 165k's .... I would have liked to have broken the 13's but I think that a bit of practise is required to do that.... I.E more driver error than car can't perform...

All in all not a bad night....

I never got to see the C-Red car as everytime it run I was drving back to the staging area....

[rev210]

MrGTST,

What was the best 60ft time you got for the night?

[MrGTST]

Off the top of my head I think I had 1 at 2.1 the rest were all getting up around 2.5

edit: I think my 14.1 run had a 2.5 60 foot time too...

[rev210]

2.1 is good.

how about the 660ft & 1000ft time/speed for the 14.1?

These can give a little insight into how quick the car can go too.

[MrGTST]

Hmmm I dont have the slips handy ( Im at work.. ) I will dig them up tongiht and post more details tomorrow....

[MrGTST]

Ok.... My fastest run of the night had these stats

Time: 14.108

Top Speed: 165.5 kph

Reaction Time: 1.2 Secs ( later in the night got this down to about 0.6 secs )

60' - 2.35 sec

330' - 6.2

660' - 9.29 sec at 129.93 kph

1000' 11.90

Thanks

Brett

[rev210]

The 660' and terminal indicates that with a good 2.1 60ft you can get at least 13.9.

The reation time aint too big a deal. 0.6sec is pretty good for an RT tho'.

[MrGTST]

Yeah I think if I get everything right in the one run I should crack the 13's.... I think my problem was trying to get evertything together.... For example one Time I would launch bad but really pickup well from 2 onwards then the next run I would launch really well and then slightly miss a gear or something like that...

I guess that all comes with practise though....

[rev210]

what mods do you have?
